8 Mrs. Jafee’s Evil Plan

8 Mrs. Jafee's Evil Plan After we dried off and changed clothes, it was time for lunch in the vomitorium. Me and the guys sat at one table. Andrea and her girly friends sat at the next table. Mrs. Jafee was walking around with a basket. "Who wants a hardtack?" she asked. "A heart attack?" I asked. "Why would anybody want one of them?" "No, silly!" Mrs. Jafee said. "Hardtack is a kind of cracker that soldiers ate during the Civil War. It's made from flour, salt, and water. I baked this batch myself, you betcha!" Hardtack sounded disgusting. Ryan said he would try a piece, because he will eat anything, even stuff that isn't food. One time he took a bite out of the seat cushion

杰菲夫人的邪恶计划我们擦干身子，换好衣服后，就到了在食堂吃午饭的时间了。 我和其他人坐在一张桌子旁。 安德里亚和她的女朋友们坐在邻桌。 杰菲太太提着篮子走来走去。 “谁想要硬面包？”她问。 “心脏病发作？”我问。 “为什么会有人想要呢？”“不,傻!”杰菲太太说。 硬饼干是美国内战期间士兵们吃的一种饼干。 它是由面粉、盐和水制成的。 这一批是我自己烤的，你敢打赌！”硬面包听起来很恶心。 瑞安说他会尝一块，因为他什么都吃，甚至不是食物的东西。 有一次他咬掉了座垫

on the school bus. Mrs. Jafee gave Ryan a piece of hardtack. He bit into it. "It tastes like cardboard," he said. Only Ryan would know what cardboard tastes like. Who eats cardboard? Ryan is weird. The rest of us told Mrs. Jafee that we didn't want any hardtack. She said she had to go back to her office.

在校车上。杰菲太太狠狠地骂了瑞安一顿。 他咬了一口。“它尝起来像硬纸板，”他说。 只有瑞恩知道纸板是什么味道。 谁吃硬纸板？瑞恩很奇怪。 我们其余的人告诉杰菲太太，我们不想要硬面包。 她说她得回办公室了。

"I can't wait until Civil War Week is over," Michael said. "Yeah, and Mr. Klutz will get back from Principal Camp," said Neil the nude kid. "Mrs. Jafee is weird." "Maybe Mrs. Jafee isn't a real vice principal," I said. "Did you ever think of that?" "Yeah," Michael said, "maybe she kidnapped our real vice principal and has her trapped in a bamboo cage that's hanging from a tree in the jungle. Stuff like that happens all the time, you know." "Stop trying to scare Emily," said Andrea at the next table. Emily looked like she was going to cry. As usual. "I'll tell you what I think," said Ryan. "Mrs. Jafee is trying to take over Mr. Klutz's job. She didn't send him to Principal Camp

“我等不及内战周结束了，”迈克尔说。 “是啊，克鲁茨先生会从校长夏令营回来的，”裸体小孩尼尔说。 “杰菲太太很奇怪。”“也许杰菲夫人不是一个真正的副校长，”我说。 “你想过吗？”“是啊，”迈克尔说，“也许她绑架了我们真正的副校长，把她关在丛林里挂在树上的竹笼里。 你知道，这样的事情经常发生。” “别吓唬艾米丽了，”邻桌的安德里亚说。 艾米丽看起来好像要哭了。 像往常一样。“我来告诉你我的想法，”瑞恩说。 “杰菲太太正试图接替克鲁茨先生的工作。 不是她送他去校长营的

so he would be a better principal. She sent him to Principal Camp so she could have him murdered!" "No!" said Emily. "It can't be true!" "I saw that in a movie once," said Michael. "I'll bet Mrs. Jafee is sitting in her office right now stroking a cat and plotting how to murder Mr. Klutz. Villains always stroke cats while they plot how to murder people." "We've got to do something!" Emily said, and then she went running out of the vomitorium. And do you know what? For once in her life, Emily was right. We did have to do something. We all scraped off our trays. Instead of going out for recess, we slinked down the hall to the office. We were slinking around like secret agents. It was cool.

所以他会是一个更好的校长。 她把他送到校长营，好让人谋杀他！”“不！”爱米丽说。 “这不可能是真的！”“我曾经在一部电影里看到过，”迈克尔说。 “我敢打赌，杰菲太太现在正坐在办公室里抚摸着一只猫，策划着如何谋杀克鲁茨先生。 坏人在密谋杀人的时候总是会抚摸猫。” “我们必须做点什么！”艾米丽说，然后她就跑出了体育馆。 你知道吗？艾米莉这辈子总算说对了一次。 我们必须做点什么。 我们都刮掉了盘子。 我们没有出去休息，而是悄悄穿过大厅去了办公室。 我们像秘密特工一样鬼鬼祟祟。 很酷。

Finally, we got to Mrs. Jafee's office. The door was open a crack. We peeked in. And you'll never believe in a million hundred years what Mrs. Jafee was doing in there. She was stroking a cat! "See?" Michael whispered. "I told you she's plotting to murder Mr. Klutz!" "Howdy, guys and gals!" Mrs. Jafee suddenly said. "Come on in! Meet my new

最后，我们到了杰菲夫人的办公室。 门开了一条缝。 我们偷偷地往里看。你绝对不会相信杰菲太太在里面做了什么。 她在抚摸一只猫！“看到了吗?”迈克尔低声说。 “我告诉过你她在密谋谋杀克鲁茨先生！”“大家好！”杰菲太太突然说。 “进来吧！”认识我的新朋友

kitten. His name is Mister Fur Columbus." "He's adorable!" Andrea said, running over to pet the cat. "No, he isn't!" I said. "That cat is evil! And you, Mrs. Jafee, will stop at nothing to turn your evil plan into reality!" "Huh?" Mrs. Jafee said. "What evil plan?" "You want to be principal, don't you?" asked Michael. "Well, someday maybe, yes, I suppose," said Mrs. Jafee. "Aha!" Ryan said. "So you admit it! You sent Mr. Klutz away to be murdered so you could take over the school!" "That's silly," Mrs. Jafee said. "I told you. Mr. Klutz is at Principal Camp." "Liar!" I shouted. "Here, I'll prove it to you," Mrs. Jafee said, pulling a piece of paper from her desk

猫猫。他的名字是弗·哥伦布先生。” “他是可爱的!”安德烈说着，跑过去摸摸猫。 “不，他不是！”我说。“那只猫很邪恶！”而你，杰菲太太，会不择手段地把你的邪恶计划变成现实！”“嗯?”杰菲太太说。 “什么邪恶的计划？”“你想当校长，是吗？”迈克尔问。 “嗯，也许有一天，是的，我想，”杰菲太太说。 “啊哈!”瑞恩说。“这么说你承认了！你把克鲁茨先生打发走让他去谋杀，这样你就可以接管学校了！”“那太愚蠢了，”杰菲太太说。 “我告诉过你。克鲁茨先生在校长营。” “骗子!”我叫道。“来，我来证明给你看，”杰菲太太说着，从桌上抽出一张纸
